Reinvent your Guest Experience with Digital Guest Maps
QR code magic
Picture this: a sleek QR code at your reception and concierge desk, not just a symbol but a gateway to adventure. A family checks in for a weekend getaway, a couple arrives seeking romantic moments and outdoor activities, a business traveler looks for a late dinner spot, and an elderly couple searches for accessible attractions. Each scans the code and boom —they're looking at a world tailored just for them, curated by you.

Tailored for every guest
It’s all about personalization. The family discovers a tour of kid-friendly sights, complete with parks and ice cream shops. The couple finds that cozy, candlelit restaurant pinned just for them. The business traveler gets a list of efficient, high-rated dining spots, while the elderly couple sees easy-access landmarks. Your digital maps cater to every need, making exploration seamless and enjoyable for all on their own terms.

Creating happy, repeat guests
Your establishment becomes the start of many adventures. Your digital maps leave guests with a visual bucket list of places they haven't yet explored, promising more stories to create on future stays. This isn't just about making their current stay 5*-review material; it's an open invitation to return and discover what they missed.

Top 5 benefits to reap
1. Delight Your Guests, Earn Stellar Reviews
Happy guests leave happy reviews. Offering them an innovative way to explore the area on their own terms with a digital map elevates their experience, translating into glowing five-star reviews for your hospitality - especially for digital natives.

❤️ 2. Ignite the Desire to Return
A digital map does more than guide; it teases what's yet to be discovered. Guests leave already planning their next visit to check off the adventures they missed the first time around.

✈️ 3. Unlock New Revenue Streams
Beyond just the stay, digital maps open up avenues for auxiliary revenue. Imagine earning from paid commissions through creator-made maps or bookings made via referral links to restaurants, tours, and transport services your guests use.

4. Gain Valuable Insights
What are your guests truly enjoying? Digital maps offer a window into their preferences — what they’re viewing, saving, and loving. This data is gold, helping you tailor services even more closely to guest desires.

5. Save Time for Your Team
Replace the repetitive “What’s there to do around here?” with a quick scan of a QR code and the hint "Try #family and #winter". It’s efficient, freeing up your team to focus on other aspects of guest service.

Bonus: Engaging Marketing Content
Digital maps aren’t just for on-site use; they’re perfect for embedding on your website or including in newsletters. Announce new attractions or hidden gems in the area, keeping your content fresh and engaging for potential visitors.
People don't know what they want until you show it to them.

about digital guest maps
Here's what fellow hospitality businesses asked us

1. How much do digital guest maps cost?
The core maps platform itself is free to use — no ads, no hidden fees. If you decide to collaborate with creators for custom map content, you'd be paying them directly for the content as part of your partnership package.

2. What about alignment to our brand and clientele?
Absolutely. Your brand will be front and center, and all content can be tailored to fit your identity. It’s best to discuss with creators about branding and clientele.

3. Are digital maps accessible for guests of all ages and tech-savviness?
Yes, our platform is designed for ease of use, with users of all ages successfully navigating our maps — we’ve spoken with users up to 74 years old!

4. What types of content can be included in the maps, and how is it managed?
Think of it like Notion, but for maps. You can include map pins, tours, text, pictures, videos, organize via hashtags and more. If you can use Instagram, you'll be a digital maps pro in no time!

5. What are potential revenue streams?
You can feature creators’ regional premium products on your maps and earn up to 20% on referrals. Plus, add referral links for tours, dining, transportation, and more to generate auxiliary revenue.

We provide detailed usage statistics, including views, favorites, saves, and time spent on the map, allowing you to gauge engagement and effectiveness directly.

7. Can digital maps really cater to specific guest interests?
Definitely. Using #tags, full-text search, notes, and more, to ensure your map serves a wide range of interests and preferences.
People create memories, not things. If we ask guests what color the carpet was in their guest room, they probably won’t know.
